combined podcast
Hello Molly, I'm at the intermediate level or above and your podcast is by far the best available for grammer practice for students at my level. I voted to keep the podcasts separate because I believe there must be many, many people who will discover the great resource you're providing but who, like me, have no professional interest in the medical vocabulary. I see you building an archive that more advanced students all over the world will want to use. Please keep up the good work. Es fantastico!
Spanish Grammar as separate feed.
Hi Eric. Thanks for the postive feedback. It really motivates me to keep plugging away with my grammar book. I will continue to work with María and other native speakers to ensure that the mateiral in the podcasts is accurate. I think you are right about keeping the feeds separate. If more people vote in favor of a combined feed, I may add a 5th combined feed in AAC format. But based on your comments and the votes above, I will keep things as they are. We should be publishing our next grammar podcast within the next month. This summer, I have been focusing on the Medical Spanish Podcast, as I've been really busy with work. Así es la vida.
two or one feed
Truly, I don't know the benefits of one or two feeds.
Good question
I'm glad you asked. I bet you aren't the only one with this question. Right now I have two separte RSS feeds one for the Medical Spanish Podcast and one for the Spanish Grammar podcast. Therefore, when I publish a podcast episode which applies to both (e.g. the recent "Greeetings and other phrases"), you receive two copies of the same podcast, one through each feed. If people were interested, I could easily make a third combined feed for all those who subscribe to both. Also, I'm thinking about combining the medical topics with the grammar review in the future. But I wanted to get your opinion first.
